Ultrafox

Ultrafox is an electropop band formed by German twins Claudia and Connie Holzer. Liam Howe and Joe Wilson of Sneaker Pimps were also involved in the band's creation. The band was formed in 2001, and their only album, Ice Skating, was released in June 2004. Since then, Howe and Wilson have stopped playing with the band due to other commitments, and David Westlake, also of Sneaker Pimps, has been working with them.

Creation

According to the band, Ultrafox was created when the Holzers met Howe and Wilson "somewhere in Europe" and decided to make an album as quickly as possible, since all their favourite albums had been made in a short time. The album, Ice Skating, was made in two weeks in Munich and London.

The name, an obvious take on the 1980s New Wave band Ultravox, was decided on by Howe and Wilson, since Howe is a great fan of the band.

Touring

Ultrafox has undertaken one European tour. They played in the Notting Hill Arts Club in London on the 8th of June 2004 (their first ever live performance), and the following day in "Shelter" in Vienna. Before the event they had only 20 hours practice - most big bands have up to a month before live performances. This was the first time David Westlake performed with them, playing drums.

Unified

You give me exaltationLike a rush from the morning airAll the endless roads we've takenDon't mean a thing I swearDestiny brought us togetherChorus:We've all that we needAs long as we're side by sideWe are sanctifiedI'll be the air that you breathAnd you'll bring me lifeTonight we are unifiedYou're stronger than emotionSurrounding me insideThis is the perfect timeI feed on your devotionThe eternal flame of lifeThis is the reason IFeel destiny brought us together(Chorus)
